Also note, the "-" characters are wild cards.  So, in your first example, 1011 0000 1011 0011 ---- ----, you're covering the range B0B300 to B0B3FF.

That makes sense that the dashes are wildcards.

Also, I will now look more closely at the conversions to ensure that they are correct. Just goes to show you can't believe everything you see on the interweb :-).

Interesting that a few conversion sites do not take into account any leading zeros in the Hex Code. Therefore the 24 Bin Code will always be wrong.

Have just re-uploaded my corrected D008 file so will give feedback on its ability to correct the country flags later.

Appreciate the help.

Have you considered using my D008 file - see http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=5797

The Bermudans have now reached the VQ-BN* series and they are currently showing with a Union Jack.  It is possible for you to research your D008 to see if you can update the file to cover the entire VQ-BAA to VQ-BZZ range under the Bermudan flag.

Sorry, but I'm very lazy, and only use whatever the SBS community publish as their countries.dat file.  The latest one is dated 7th April 2011, and contains the following Bermudan entries:
BM,Bermuda_1,01000000000000001-------
BM,Bermuda_2,01000000000000010-------
BM,Bermuda_3,010000000000000110------
BM,Bermuda_4,0100001001000000--------
BM,Bermuda_5,0100001001000001000-----
BM,Bermuda_6,01000010010000010010----
BM,Bermuda_7,0100001001000001001100--
